no doug collins need to run drills in practice called finishing through contact even if he has to use the BAGS. Its not about getting on them its aboit collins being a better coach. Idk why people say hes a excellent coach he is not. Dude needs to go. Id rather have stan van gundy

how many other coaches can do what he has done with the little amount of talent he has had?

lol see the post under yours!

Doug collins is a good little starter coach. He is not a next level coach, as dougs rate our young talent wont max out untill there 30. okay great hes installed some good teacher values but now its time to unleash the guys, make em bang in practice, make em hit the bags in the air trying to finish. Id imagine all we do in practice is shoot contested jumpers just like the real game which is why it happebs damn bear every time. Dougs not coaching basketball, hes coaching select fundamentals. Were pass that. We need to go to the next level. Attack the rim in practice against contact and youll see a sixer team that gets 15-20 points from the li gb e a night. Theyll be used to getting banged in the air abd finishing.

i don't think soft is the right word, so much as they're just young. in the NBA, and especially in the NBA playoffs, youth puts you at a disadvantage. as great as lebron is, he didn't win a championship until he was 27. the same can be said about michael jordan. and the same thing seems to be occurring with kevin durant as well. even for the best players in the world, it takes time to get to that level.

jrue is 22. ET, thad, spencer hawes, they're 24. those are the 4 sixers who have played the most minutes this season. at some point, you should add a 25 year old andrew bynum. now, thaddeus young has played 30 games in the playoffs. jrue, ET, and spence have each played 18. bynum has played 74, but he's only really been a foundational player for ~22 of them. they are just beginning to get their legs under them, and i just have a feeling that they are headed in the right direction. they may not necessarily be on the right track, but their momentum is going the right way.

This team is soft its sickening. When we released Brand it hurt the team from a toughness standpoint. WIth trading Iggy this team let its future star players get better. Jrue and ET have showed vast improvement this season. But they really thought that Bynum would be playing. However, i had my money on Lavoy stepping up. And he hasn't. Thad to me is just a bench player whom is starting.
